Melt 3 TBL butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the onion, Currants, sage, and uncooked rice. Saute 5 to 10 minutes. Mix in water and salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and cook 45 minutes until rice is tender and easily fluffed with a fork.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Season the Cornish game hen inside and out with salt, and stuff with the wild rice mixture. Place the hens breast side up on a rack in a baking pan. Brush with the ¼ cup melted butter.

Cover the baking pan and cook the hens 30 minutes in the preheated oven. Uncover, and continue cooking 1 hour, or until the hens are no longer pink and the juices run clear.

Place the cooked hens on a serving platter and drizzle the Savory chocolate sauce on the hens and around the plate.
